In a brief telephone interview with the Vanguard yesterday, Sharibu, a member of Evangelical Church Winning All (ECWA) narrated their ordeal since 10 February when the 110 Dapchi schoolgirls were abducted by Boko Haram, saying: “I really have nothing much to say now except that Leah is not yet back to join the rest of the family.
“Till now I have not heard anything and no authority has told me anything about the whereabouts of Leah. Only my loved ones were calling to congratulate me that my daughter is on the way home. But until now I have not seen anything yet.”
Asked about the state of health of the mother, the man, who had relocated to Dapchi from his Yola posting, answers: “The mother is getting better now, knowing well that the nation and the whole world are praying for the safe return of her daughter.
“She fainted earlier when the daughter’s classmates were returned on Wednesday.”
Sharibu, an indigene of Hong council of Adamawa State, was posted to Yobe but is now stationed in Yola from where he comes to Dapchi to see his wife and three children.
